The Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap: Corn Cookies

Sorry for the horrible picture, didn't dawn on me to take pictures with my actual camera, and not my phone!

This year, I was part of something amazing. The Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap! Hundreds of other bloggers joined in all of the fun and cookies were sent all over the country. It was so amazing to find a couple boxes on my doorstep when I came home from work of a variety of different cookies! And it was even better to discover new blogs in the process!

I received Dark & Stormy Cookies from Kathy Can Cook, Toffee Cookies from Anna from Girls Can Tell, and Lime Cookies from Creative Crops. I'd never been do any of those blogs before, but I'm now a regular because they're all so sweet and have great blogs!

It was definitely hard to choose a cookie to send to my lucky recipients as well. I didn't want to send a "normal" cookie, but something different. So I turned to one of my favorite cookbooks of the moment - Momofuku Milk Bar by Christina Tosi. I made the Corn Cookies, which are my absolute favorite out of everything I've made out of the book so far. They're different, like a cross between a butter and a sugar cookie, with that slight hint of corn in the background. Definitely amazing.

Gosh, I've not seen as many cookies in the last few days with this amazing cookie swap! Your corn cookies look fabulous - so different with the corn and look at their vibrant colour. They sound so tasty.

I also had Dark and Stormy's and the Toffee Cookies! Your corn cookies were so fun! Thank you so much for such deliciousness! I enjoyed the swap because there were so many different and unique things! And I love getting to know other bloggers too :)

What a unique cookie! I am curious what corn powder is. Can you get this at any grocery store? The swap was so much fun this year and I can't wait to do it again next year. I mean, who doesn't love cookie delivered directly to them not once but three different times? YUM!
